Dough Ingredients
- 4 1/4 cups all-purpose flour plus about 1/2 cup as needed
- 4 1/2 teaspoons instant dry yeast (2 packets)
- 1 teaspoon fine salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
Filling Ingredients
- 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/3 cup cookie butter, melted
Frosting Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
- 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream, room temperature
Topping
- 1/4 cup cookie butter, melted
- 1/2 cup chopped cookies
- Prepare Filling Mix: Combine 1 cup packed dark brown sugar, 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon fine salt in a bowl; set aside for later use.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, stir together 4 1/4 cups all-purpose flour with 4 1/2 teaspoons instant dry yeast and 1 teaspoon fine salt until well combined.
- Heat Wet Ingredients: Warm 1 cup whole milk, 1/2 cup unsalted butter, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar together until the butter melts and the mixture is warm to the touch but not hot. Stir this warm mixture into the dry ingredients.
- Add Eggs and Knead Dough: Add 2 large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition until a sticky dough forms. Knead by hand or with a mixer, gradually adding more flour a tablespoon at a time until the dough is tacky but not sticky. Let the dough rest for 10-20 minutes.
- Roll Out Dough: On a floured surface, roll the dough into a 14 by 18-inch rectangle approximately 1/2 cm thick.
- Add Filling: Spread 1/2 cup softened unsalted butter evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2 inch bare edge. Sprinkle the prepared cinnamon sugar filling evenly on top and drizzle 1/3 cup melted cookie butter over the filling.
- Form Rolls: Roll the dough tightly from the long edge, sealing the edge with a little water. Using unflavored dental floss, cut the roll into 12 equal pieces.
- Proof Rolls: Place the rolls in a greased 9 by 13-inch pan. Let them proof for about 30 minutes if baking immediately, or cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Bake Rolls: Preheat the oven to 360°F (180°C). Bake the cinnamon rolls for 26-30 minutes or until golden brown.
- Prepare Frosting: Whip together 1/2 cup unsalted butter, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon fine salt. Gradually mix in 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream until smooth and creamy.
- Finish and Serve: Once rolls have cooled for about 10 minutes, spread the frosting over them. Drizzle with 1/4 cup melted cookie butter and sprinkle 1/2 cup chopped cookies on top. Serve warm or at room temperature for the best enjoyment.
Notes
- For easier dough handling, consider using a no-knead cinnamon rolls method.
- If refrigerating overnight, allow the rolls to come to room temperature and proof before baking for best rise.
- Using unflavored dental floss to cut the rolls helps create clean edges without squashing the dough.
- Adjust cinnamon and sugar amounts in the filling to suit your taste preference.
